I Became The Stepmother of My Ex-husband

Chapter 14: Grudge

Lin Wei Xi sadly found that she always accidently helped Gu Cheng Yao, when obviously what she want was to stir up some troubles. What even more annoying was that the people around her misunderstood her actions, affectionately thought that Lin Wei Xi was kind-hearted, couldn't stand watching Shizi being criticized by Wangye, so she found a way to get him out of the predicament.

Before broken up that damn predicament, Lin Wei Xi looked forward to Yan Wang scolding Gu Cheng Yao for two more hours.

Lin Wei Xi went back to Jingdan Garden with anger. After taking off her cloak she sat down, Wan Xing brought hot tea to Lin Wei Xi. Seeing Lin Wei Xi's cold face, she smiled and said, "What's wrong with Miss? Could it be some people in the mansion dare to make Miss angry?"

Wan Xing was the maid that Yan Wang bought to take care Lin Wei Xi after she fell ill on the journey. Lin Wei Xi followed Wan Yue's name and named her Wan Xing. These two maids were now all her staff.

Wan Yue put away Lin Wei Xi's cloak, when she came back she heard this sentence, she replied: "Today Miss coughing again outside, but it was also lucky, otherwise Shizi and Shizi Consort will not be able to come out from their spot."

"What's wrong?"

Wan Yue said a few words about the dinner, Wan Xing sighed for a while, and praised: "Miss is so kind. Shizi Consort deliberately asked her wet nurse to intimidate Miss, and Miss willing to help them break up their predicament."

Who was willing! Lin Wei Xi replied angrily in her heart. In the mansion, Gao Ran after all the daughter-in-law of Yan Wang Mansion, Wan Xing and Wan Yue didn't have much to say, so they drop the subject. Wan Yue went on to say: "Exactly, Wangye's anger today is really scary. I didn't dare to raise my head in fright. That is to say, Wangye is easier to talk to with Miss, but Wangye is really strict with Shizi. In front of many people can reprimand without any feelings."

"Because of what?"

"It's for Grand Princess Shou Kang. I didn't expect that Yan Wang seems unreasonable, but is filial to the princess."

Lin Wei Xi heard this indifferently added: "It's not that he is filial to Grand Princess Shou Kang. Although Grand Princess is Yan Wang's aunt, how many princesses must be in the royal family? With so many uncles, nephews and aunts, I don't see him all coming close. Yan Wang was really filial to old Yan Wang. Back then when old Yan Wang has not move to his fief, Emperor Shizong was suspicious and jealous of him. It was with Princess Shou Kang's guarantee that old Yan Wang could go out the country smoothly. Because of this matter, Yan Wang treated Princess Shou Kang Mansion very courteously. Gu Cheng Yao grew up in the fief. He was born when Yan Wang Mansion at the peak of its power, and everything was smooth sailing. How can he understand the relationship of the previous generations."

"It turns out there is this kind of relationship." After Wan Xing listened to it, she inadvertently asked, "Miss, how do you know about Emperor Shizong's matter?"

Lin Wei Xi's hand that took the tea immediately paused, she knew this naturally because of what Princess Shou Kang had personally said. But Lin Wei Xi, a lone weak woman, shouldn't know this. Lin Wei Xi inwardly alarmed, but she still casually replied: "When I was ten years old, my dad brought me to the capital to see a doctor. I stayed in the capital for almost half a year and listened to what the old men in the alley said."

Both Wan Yue and Wan Xing came to Lin Wei Xi's side halfway and didn't know anything about Lin Wei Xi's past. They believed Lin Wei Xi's explanation. Seeing that she managed to fool the two maids, while Lin Wei Xi feel relieved, she also secretly warned herself not to be so careless.

If the person who heard this was Yan Wang, it would be over.

Both Wan Yue and Wan Xing came to the capital for the first time, and they were also in the Royal Mansion. The two of them were different from Lin Wei Xi's former maid, chattering lively. Now Lin Wei Xi's identity was no longer the same, let alone the two maidservants. Wan Xing and Wan Yue were full of curiosity about the famous Yan Wang Mansion, and now they both actually live with Lin Wei Xi in the place, which was so remarkable. They lowered their voices and said that Yan Wang Mansion only exposed the tip of the iceberg, but it was already a wonderful enough family's affair: "I heard that the current Shizi Consort is the second wife, and the lady before her is also surnamed Gao, it's Shizi Consort's older sister!"
